Feeling dead inside 6 months post PCT from Test NPP cycle

One of the things that isn’t talked about enough with nandrolone is that it’s really really nasty to recover from in terms of hormones / PCT. Meaning that i would not touch it unless i was on HRT and / or never planned to come off of test.
It’s put me off gear for life I think, nothings worth feeling like this lol
 
Imo hormones look fine. It looks like you have been going through some shit from life in general plus the nandrolone thing like the other user said. Hopefully once things get better you will feel better.

Pray for me man! It has to be the nandrolone just hope I feel better soon it’s been 6-7 months of feeling completely hollow now.
 
One thing that won’t show up on bloodwork is how these compounds impact people psychologically. Just because someone’s test is super high doesn’t mean they’ll be aggressive or horny all the time. If a prolactin is high it could imply low dopamine (as these are inversely related) and perhaps some depressive symptoms, but far more guys get really fucked up mentally on nandrolone without these prolactin issues. And we all know our friend Tren. Some of us can run it like it’s water (bloodwork is fucked but we feel great / fine). Others can’t handle 10 mg per day. This is the shitty part of trial and error. That is, dealing with the “errors.” It’s why you’ll see current trends towards test and DHT’s like mast and primo and less nandrolone and other things. Of course, lots of guys go bald on DHT’s, get dry skin, prostate issues etc. Test is still best. With some GH. Branching out is not without risks.

I have some proviron I’m tempted to try to give me some kickstart but I’m just so burned now I don’t wanna add anything to the mix. Got a long road ahead of me it seems

The only thing I’d do is get on TRT and make sure your test and estrogen are normal range. I wouldn’t touch anything else. Nolva has some long acting metabolites that combined with coming off nandrolone may have made this all worse than it had to be.

Also it’s pretty self evident but aside from all this you should try to find a qualified professional (it’s not easy; most are just crazy women who will yes you to death and infantilize you making you feel worse) to talk to about the personal shit that went down.

Just remember. This will pass. But it doesn’t need to be as awful as it is right now. Get your sex hormones situated and talk to someone.

your levels seem normal, maybe try some pramipexole to nudge dopamine which could be a factor, but unlikely so long out. you could try oral e2 as well, if it makes a difference thats it. your blood levels are normal. there could be some receptor downregulation who knows. maybe give a higher dose HCG a shot, like 3x2kIU/week. this will ramp T/E2 you should feel a difference. HCG will shut you down over time, i'd try for 1-2 weeks
 
The thought of sex repulses me and I used to pretty much be a sex addict.
SHBG is 65 nmol/l
Any chance you checked your DHT?

When I had high SHBG and low DHT, my sex drive was pretty low despite having normal test and estradiol levels.


Also... don't be quick to blame hormones. Be honest with yourself and summarize things in your life that may be contributing to they way you are feeling.

Use some of the energy you have for bloodwork and checking hormones on finding and talking with a mental health professional and create a plan to keep you safe and healthy while you go through this.
